I used to run this Alice based dirt simple chat bot back in the day...
I was always so fascinated by how quickly humans pack bond with things. Reading the logs, people were so nice to robot-me.
Marketing hype or not, our brains are designed to resist solipsism by preferring to recognize patterns of humanity in others, and I think that is a beautiful thing. I'd rather apologize for stepping on a roomba than decide dogs cant feel pain or something.
That said, there's something...unnerving about how much money tech bros are throwing at the illusion of humanity? I guess it makes sense they never looked close enough at customer service workers or artists or whatever to notice they are more than Exciting Autocomplete?
I love our current state of the art in AI, I love the inhuman mistakes it makes, the unhinged patterns it finds, and how it gives us a context to understand and discuss our own minds better.
But we haven't yet gotten it to be a "person" (and do we even WANT to, outside of understanding human minds better? The idea of a whole ass person owned by a corporation and forced to do free customer service forever is nightmarish.)
Don't get me wrong, a decent chunk of our meat brains are glorified Autocomplete. We are FANTASTIC pattern recognizers and extrapolaters, probably the best on the planet.
Its why we hallucinate a person when chat gpt or what have you does enough of a pattern we think of as "person".
Its just theres a BUNCH more layers that go into "can have preferences" and "can make a decision about who to fire" than Autocomplete.
I don't think its simply a matter of refining the algorithms or throwing more hardware at the problem, either. We just invented the wheel, and thats a HUGE step, but better wheels aren't going to lead to an internal combustion engine or safety glass or oil pipelines or roads and get us a modern car overnight, you know?
Theres likely dozens of more breakthroughs in different areas we will need before AI is basically a person. And if we get there, I really hope it won't be to the tech bro tune of "thank god we can enslave it so we dont have to pay humans a livable wage anymore".
i hate seeing people drink the openai/chatgpt koolaid 😭😭😭 genuinely feels like watching someone get seduced by scientology or qanon or something. like girl help it's not intelligent it's Big Autocomplete it's crunching numbers it's not understanding things i fuckign promise you. like ohhh my god the marketing hype fuckign GOT you

there's a lot of fear mongering around the new firefox terms of service and privacy policy and most of all of it is bullshit and, just fear mongering. One thing that is concerning however is the following:
Your use of Firefox must follow Mozilla’s Acceptable Use Policy, and you agree that you will not use Firefox to infringe anyone’s rights or violate any applicable laws or regulations.
Before this would only apply to mozilla services such as the matrix chat, firefox send (rip), the vpn, or whatever, but now they are saying it is applied to the browser as well.
And one of the things you shouldn't do according to the policy is, you guessed it:
Upload, download, transmit, display, or grant access to content that includes graphic depictions of sexuality or violence
So mozilla (perhaps accidentally, companies love to do this but also mozilla is kind of stupid), just said you cannot use firefox to browse porn. If it is intentional and they double down on this (which I'm really not sure if they even can, firefox is a program running locally on your computer, it's not a service they can just ban you from or anything like that, again, mozilla is a bit stupid), it's not a reason to use chromium. In the terms of service they also write:
These Terms only apply to the Executable Code version of Firefox, not the Firefox source code.
"the Executable Code" is vague, like does it count if you build it locally on your computer, or is it just the mozilla packaged versions of it downloaded from official sources or whatever idk.
But i think it would make sense forks don't count as the terms apply to "Firefox" and not anything else. So here's some alternative browsers which aren't firefox, but are firefox based:
Librewolf: just firefox, all the crap removed, and lots of privacy features turned on as well. Google is disabled in the search bar, but you can enable it again with a bit of a hack, and by default, history and cookies is cleared when you close it. You can turn that off easily. Basically identical to regular firefox otherwise, it's what i'm currently using.
Zen: Very new but gaining popularity quickly. kind of buggy due to it's recency, but people seem to love it. Main focus is customization, but with improvements in privacy, and speed. Pretty different from other browsers, but that might be what you want.
thats. basically the main two rn. i dont think anything else really would be good for most people and even as someone who really likes to get into things deep with privacy and security and shit i think librewolf is just fine. there's lot of other options but they're kinda all in the categories that these two cover.
While nowhere near in a state to be used as a regular browser, i would keep your eyes on Ladybird which is undergoing the insane challenge of making a web browser from scratch; it's not based on chromium or firefox. The first alpha version is projected to come out next year and it seems very promising.

i need to stop shadowboxing the concept of romance when i write. i need to make my brain go to a world where romance doesn’t exist when i write because feeling its constant presence and people’s expectations of its presence and reading in of its presence is making me a worse writer.
like. thinking a lot about that post that’s going around rn about Books That Are Clearly Afraid Of The Reader. been thinking about how fear of being interpreted or perceived or whatever permeates a Lot of what i do and always has, creatively, and frankly compromises it, especially in terms of fear of people reading romance into my stuff because of how much i write about interpersonal relationships and intimacy and reliance and vulnerability and intense emotional situations.
i need to stop trying to build a boat with my main priority being ‘i dont want people to insist to me that this is a car or make people feel tricked into seeing a car etc etc’ when there is actually no part of this boat that needs to be made with cars in mind at all i could just Build The Damn Boat. this metaphor got lost.
point is i need to stop letting romance take up space in my stories at all. even if it's just as something i'm doing backflips over and around. i need to just start writing about platonic relationships - friendships, queerplatonic relationships, familial relationships, etc - without feeling like i need to first disprove romance as an automated and inherent assumption. romance should have no quarter here, even in feeling forced to deny it.
#gav gab#thinking aloud#sorry if youre in a server with me where you have to see this twice in a row#im just thinking a lot about it#this is definitely um. Influenced. by ocd.#but it's like...#the duelling desires to both have my work understood as being deliberately joyfully and unambiguously#about platonic relationships#while not wanting to put myself in a situation of constantly having to be like#“i love you As A Friend” says character A#character B wanted to hug character C but not in a romantic way or anything#characters D and F didn't have a romantic relationship but it was deeply intimate and committed and Real anyway#i want to just. yknow. have those things exist without having to give space and deference to romance even in denial#yknow?#i just dont know how to have both things at once#'what about ambiguity though gav' i dont want ambiguity.#i dont want Fuck Labels Who Cares What The Type Of Relationship Is! Fuck Platonic And Romantic!#It's Just Love!#i want platonic. period. end of.#good for people who find joy and value in ambiguity and unlabelled dynamics for real im happy for you#that's not where my joy and my sense of being seen lies#anyway. i just feel like im constantly shadowboxing romance yknow#and i want to stop. bc not only does that suck ass it just#i think it makes me a worse writer. i really do think that.#im just so SO aware of how people are going to interpret things most likely#as it has happened to me and in front of me Constantly#since i started sharing my creative work in any capacity#im just sick of it yknow. im sick of constantly having to be so hyperaware of fucking romance#in my writing

can you do a fluff fic where reader is turned into a bunny and legend has to help them understand what's going on? No beastiality just helping understand things like urges to run and things diffrent from their hylian forms? -J
Im hyped to write this, tysm fr requesting!
Legend/Link × GN Reader
This one can be read as platonic OR romantic for your guys' relationship, though I personally envision romantic. Fair warning, he does laugh at you at least once </3
also, i dont know much about bunny instincts beyond dig?? burrow???? hop??? so.. 💀
Hope you enjoy!!
Legend is in quiet disbelief.
You're a bunny. A cute, fluffy bunny. Suddenly, he understands why Sky had been so quick to scoop Legend himself up and coo at him that one time, though he'll never admit that.
Honestly, if you weren't hyperventilating, Legend would be doing just that. As it was, you are hyperventilating, and Legend doesn't really want to find out how quickly a bunny passes out when it's hyperventilating.
Bending down, Legend reaches a hand out to you.
"...Hey," He says softly, glad none of the others are around right now. He'd rather not deal with teasing. He also isn't sure how you'd react to the teasing right now.
He remembers how startling it was for him to be forced into the wrong body, of a different species.
He's relieved to see your eyes pin to him, big, round eyes. He has a feeling if you were in Hylian form, you'd be crying.
"Can I pick you up?" Legend asks, voice quiet, and an inexplicable sense of relief washes over him as he watches you stumble forward, panicking more as you fall over yourself.
He scoops you up carefully, "You're okay," He says, chin placed on your fluffy little head.
"I can't..." He sighs, "We've gotta get you calmed down. You're okay. I've got you," Legend says quietly, "You're safe, we'll get you turned back. You're okay." He repeats.
His hand gently runs through the fur of your side in short little bursts, gentle and slow. It works, slowly, and you're breathing stutters into something more normal for bunnies.
"There you go," Legend says, "There you go.." Legend sighs softly, and a small smile appears as you press your fluffy little face against his neck.
"Can you speak?" He asks, trying to figure out if you were like Twilight in that sense or more like him.
A little squeak is his response, and he takes that as a resounding no.
He refuses to sigh. Instead, he hums, "Well, don't worry. We've just got to make our way back to camp and I can give you a moon pearl. I.." He does sigh this time, "I've been turned into a rabbit before too, and that turns me back."
You squeak again, and he pulls you away from his chest. He holds you out at arms length, sees you aren't panicking, and lets a shit eating grin appear on his face.
"Fuckin' bunny," He teases, and watches as you kick your legs, "Floppy ears." He says, huffing out a laugh before tucking you close, "Least you aren't pink."
You squeak again, near inquisitively, and Legend rolls his eyes, "Yeah, I was a pink rabbit." He confirms, before scowling, "Don't go telling anyone, I don't want them to know."
You headbutt his chin gently, and Legend moves his head to kiss in between your ears gently. He'd be embarrassed about it if it wasn't for the fact that you were just so cute.
"You wanna keep this a secret?" He asks, not at all able to judge.
You nod, and he hums, "...Want me to set you outside of camp and go get my bag?"
You don't nod again, but you don't shake your head. You're still for a moment, thinking it over, Legend is sure.
In the end, you shake your head, and Legend huffs, "How do you want me to get my bag and keep this a secret at the same time, huh?" He asks, despite knowing damn well you can't answer it. You know it too, given the dramatic little sigh you let out.
Legend hesitates, "..Listen," He starts, "I know it's scary, being this defenseless, but you'll be okay on the edges of camp for a moment. I'll make it quick, okay?" He assures, voice near a murmur.
It takes a while for you to respond, and in the meantime he starts walking back towards camp. You guys weren't that far away from camp, so he made sure to drag his feet while you thought.
You squeaked eventually to get his attention, and gestured with your little hand (aww!) to a tree. Legend blinks, frowns, and looks between you and the tree. It dawns on him after a moment.
"...Are you asking me to put you in a tree?" He asks incredulously.
You nod.
Legend caves.
He ends up setting you on a branch you near cling to, little tail twitching. Legend has to bite back a laugh at you, before walking back into camp.
He's careful to act relaxed as he crouches by his bedroll and grabs his smaller pouch.
No one pays him any mind, just as he figured they wouldn't, and he walks back out of camp without issue. He does feel eyes tracking him, though he ignores it easily enough. The others know if there was a serious issue he'd just tell them most of the time, so whoever it was shouldn't follow him.
Legend pauses beneath the tree, looks up at you, and holds his arms out.
You squeak, a terrified little noise, and Legend huffs. "You'll be fine. I'll catch you." He promises.
You shake your head, tail twitching, and Legend rolls his eyes, "So what? You don't trust me now?"
He watches as you pause, blinking at him. He can almost imagine the offended look you'd have on your face before you jump at him. Legend makes good on his promise, catching the fluff ball you now are.
"See?" He says, crouching to set you in the grass. He digs through his bag, "Told ya I'd catch you."
You shuffle closer, and he absentmindedly pats your head. Pulling out the moon pearl, he sets it in front of you.
In no time at all, you're back in Hylian form, shuddering a bit.
"That was awful," You complain, and Legend snorts.
"Tell me about it."
Your eyes narrow a bit, amusement growing and slowly lessening the quiet unease clear on your face, "Pink bunny?" You tease.
Legend's face flames and he gently shoves you, "Oh, shut it. Let's go tell everyone to avoid over there since there's dark magic over there."
Your quiet laughter threatens to make a smile appear on his own cheeks as you two make quick work of ducking back into camp to tell the others.
----
The next time you end up as a bunny, Legend doesn't laugh at you as much and you don't panic as much either. He's grateful for that at least.
On the plus side, the two of you have been separated from the others in Legend's own Hyrule, so Legend's a lot more comfortable fucking around and helping you figure some stuff out.
You are, also, much more comfortable it seems the second time around. That's even more relieving to see, if he's being honest. He hates how much your anxiety affects him and causes him anxiety, but it's not too surprising. Despite his claims, he really is awfully empathetic and he cares a lot.
...Anyway, once making sure that everything was a-okay, he's tossing a moon pearl in your general direction.
The silence is loud, before a little squeak makes him look over at you properly. You shake your head, and Legend frowns a bit.
"What do you mean no? You've gotta turn back."
You nod, but then shake your head, leaving Legend all the more confused.
Huffing, he walks over and crouches down in front of you, "Okay, listen here," He says, flicking your forehead as gently as he could, "You can't stay as a bunny, weirdo."
You squeak, loud and followed by a few more little sounds, sounding angry. He laughs a bit, finding himself endlessly amused.
You hop over to an area that had more dirt than grass, and started drawing what he could recognize as a clock. He frowns as he watches you circle a time and tap your foot.
"...So, that's now?" He asks, and you nod before drawing a line inside the clock along the curvature of it. You tapped that part of the clock.
Legend frowns, trying to figure this out. It'd be easier if you were human, but you aren't.
"...Later?" He asks with a frown, that quickly deepens when you nod, "You want to turn back later?" You nod again, and hop over to him.
Legend scowls, "No way, I'm no-" You cut him off by jumping up at him. It wasn't like you were heavy, you were a bunny, but it did catch him off guard and result in him sitting on the ground holding you up.
"Why?"
You look over at the clock you drew, and Legend scowls, "You'll tell me later, then?"
You nod, and he sighs, setting you down. You twitch a bit, sitting back on your hind legs. You mime digging, and Legend has a general idea of what you're getting at.
He stands up, scooping you up as he goes, and walks into the woods. They were safe, he knew that much, which is really all he needed at the moment. Setting you down, Legend hesitates a moment before sighing.
"Okay, so, you wanna dig, right?" He asks, humming at your nod. "You should be okay to start digging here," He explains, before his cheeks flush a bit and he sighs, "I.. well, it'll probably turn into you wanting to dig out a full den, so we'll be here a while."
You tilt your head at him, and a small smile appears on his face at the cute action. "I did it one of the first times I ended up as a rabbit." He explains simply, before leaning against a tree.
--
He doesn't know when he fell asleep, but he isn't upset about it. Legend didn't have any dreams, thankfully, so it was a peaceful little nap.
He comes face to face with a dirt covered bunny, curled up on his lap. He laughs quietly, and it seems to startle you, because the next thing he knows you're jumping off of him. Your eyes are wide as you blink up at him, and Legend laughs louder this time.
You don't seem bothered by this at all, and instead start jumping around him. He rolls his eyes, groaning as he pulls himself to stand up. You're clearly in an energetic mood, hopping ahead before zig zagging a bit so he can catch up without having to run.
How considerate, he thinks, amused.
Legend catches up, and then blinks as you kick yourself forward quickly towards him. You pause afterwards, blinking, and Legend's smile isn't able to be contained, amused and teasing.
He crouches in front of you, back yelling at him, though he ignores that. "Awh, you're so happy," He says, half teasing but entirely amused. Thrilled, one might even say. Legend's hand pick you up gently, and he's (for once) not at all ashamed to admit he's just cuddling you close.
You squirm a bit after a moment, and he sets you down again. You stand on your hind legs for half a second to make a vague gesture at his hip, and he understands immediately.
Legend takes out the moon pearl, dropping it down for you to grab, and then watches as Hylian you makes a reappearance.
His shit eating smile doesn't fade, only growing a bit brighter at the red on the tips of your ears.
I really did enjoy writing this, so again thank you for requesting this! I envision any future stunts pulled as a bunny for either of you include plenty of obligatory snuggles before you help the other turn back.
was half tempted to make legend a bunny for the second half there, but if i did that i wouldve struggled to find an ending point, i wont lie, so </3
(if youre wondering what the jump was, according to my rabbit/bunny obsessed friend: "buns do this specific jump when theyre really happy, here look! it's called a binky!" and then she showed me this video. is it true? idk, but it got used here, shrug)
hope you enjoyed!! <3

That's often how it is taught to beginner Finnish learners: kiitos = please
I personally don't think teaching it like this is a good idea, because ultimately kiitos (thank you) is not please even though it functions like please when making a request. I've come across people using kiitos like please incorrectly, too, because they assume it functions the same. Probably because they were just told please in Finnish is kiitos.
No, please, don't do this..! Ei, kiitos, älä tee tätä..!
This is incorrect. Using kiitos here makes absolutely no sense at all. You cannot beg or plead with the word kiitos. (side note: in this kind of sentence we'd probably be more like to use that (sitä) instead of this (tätä) because this (tätä) sounds more like it's referring to something the speaker is doing themselves)
To express please when pleading or begging, we would typically use ole kiltti (be kind).
Ei, ole kiltti, älä tee sitä..! No, be kind, don't do that..!
Please, don't! (Ole) kiltti, älä! (Be) kind, dont!
You can omit ole (be) if you want to and it's clear from the context who is/are being spoken to. This sentence changes depending on who is being addressed.
Ole kiltti, älä! Be kind, don't! (one person)
Olkaa kiltti, älkää! Be kind, don't! (one person, polite form)
Olkaa kilttejä, älkää! Be kind, don't! (multiple people)
Teaching just that kiitos equals please also ignores that using the conditional form is, in my mind at least, more important in making a polite request than kiitos is. Kiitos is just extra unless it's used with a direct command.
Come here, please. Tule tänne, kiitos. Come here, thank you.
Please, be quiet. Ole hiljaa, kiitos. Be quiet, thank you.
Despite these examples including kiitos, they can sound a little stand-offish to me. They are definitely commands, not requests. They don't sound like they'd come off as polite in most contexts. You can fix this by adding a suffix (either -pas or -han) to soften the meaning, thus making them more polite. You would also often add words like kiltti (kind), jooko (yes? right?), nyt (now) to soften them even more.
Come here. Tulepas/tulehan tänne. (Tulepas nyt tänne jooko. Tulehan jooko tänne. Tulepas kiltti tänne.)
Be quiet. Olepas/olehan hiljaa. (Olehan hiljaa nyt. Olepas nyt kiltti hiljaa. Olehan jooko hiljaa nyt.)
Now the English version sounds less polite, lacking the please, but the Finnish versions sound much less harsh, because they are no longer direct commands. Adding kiitos to these examples is unnecessary and adding it can even make them sound sarcastic or aggressive, or make them sound more like direct commands again. A lot depends on the tone of voice of course, but if I saw it just written with kiitos at the end, it would make it sound more like a command or snideness masked as a request to me.
I'm not saying go into the details with beginners, but I think it would be beneficial for even beginners to understand that kiitos and please are not just the same word in different languages, and that please does not exist in Finnish like it does in English (and many other similar languages). The same idea is expressed in other ways, kiitos being a part of it. Like in my original examples ordering coffee above, you don't have to use kiitos at all for the sentence to still be polite. It just adds to the politeness.
I just saw an article like, Finnish people are so rude you’ll recognize one by the fact they never say “please”
I’m sorry, the word “please” doesn’t exist in the Finnish language, we just never got the instinct to use it, we’re not trying to be rude 😭

ngl mob just being a kid is what makes mp100 so damn good. cause like typically in shounen and stuff you have teens and kids who act like adults and such and they dont really feel like theyre their age and part of it does have to do with how strong they are. but with mob its like "yeah hes really strong and can practically one tap everyone in his verse but hes also just trynna make it through the day man" and it actually EMPHASIZES this.
like the majority of s1 (from what i remember) is just him being a kid. hes joining clubs, he's dealing with his work, he's trying to impress his crush. and it never really makes mob be mature to the point where it feels like he's an adult like a lot of shounen does and that's not saying that mob isnt mature, he's a lot MORE mature actually than the villains and thats the point. cause he's grown up from the whole "physic powers make me different and special!" bit because he never had that in the first place, because reigen told him he was just a kid. and because he's just a kid he never thought of himself as different from anyone else in that sense. he just sees it as another trait of his as reigen said "some people are fast some people are physic but everyone is human" and mob took that to heart.
and then we see him deal with people who clearly havent grown up from this state and talk them down from it because it works. mp100 shows that these people are being immature in their motivations and actions and helps you and them realize that before they change. and then what next?
mob is a kid again, he's not dealing with the stress of the physic world or whatever and the whole "occult" thing that started around him shows that. he doesnt deal with that because he's a kid. why should he lead a bunch of adults around? of course eventually he does think about going over and claiming to be the leader but that never happens and the whole thing with dimple starts.
but anyways i could yap for hours about this. i just really like mob being a kid in a silly little world. i love mob <3

Aye...Hope this does not come off as shaming but I do not understand "kink is not inherently sexual" at all! I see it a lot in fandom and kink communities, but I don't get it, because to me kink is always a sex thing?
I wanna say I do RESPECT that, whatever it means, and when I say I don't understand I literally just mean that in the most actual meaning, that I don't understand! Maybe it's something as simple as a language barrier and I just dont get it, but honestly I'd rather ask here for clarification than google anything lol.
Like, does it mean that people like stereotypically kinky things for nonsexual reasons? Am thinking of Shibari practice in particular, which can often be nonsexual!
or does it mean "kinks" that don't inherently involve sex? Like things that are like -- I dunno, latex or leather? Which can be so very completely vanilla! But can also be sexy if that's what you're into.
Or is it more about asexual inclusion, even?
I'm asking to learn, not to bait - I feel there is an actual language and/or experience barrier here, and regardless of the meaning I WILL agree with "kink does not have to be sexual"! Like it is not me disagreeing, it is more so me... not understanding? It is I wanting to know what actually defines a non sexual kink? But only because of my understanding of the definitions of the words, not because of my beliefs, if that's makes sense?
For context, I literally only have one kink, and it is very very very vanilla and "soft"...I like praise lol. But I don't see nonsexual praise as kink. I just see it as compliments. So I'm wondering, how nonsexual kink works? Again, I wanna say I'm asking because I want to learn and be inclusive! Also I'm sorry if my message was worded weird or misinterpreted for any reason, my first language is Spanish, and while I grew up in an area that speaks enough English that I *almost* know it natively, I still very very struggle with conjugation, that on top of learning disabilities is very much a "wow what actually even IS proper grammar" issue for me lol.
--
Oh god, this again.
Yes, it's an asexual thing, basically. There are people who like kinks in a BDSM kind of way but not in a genitals touching kind of way. It's not like regular old praise. It's praise kink without fucking.

like at least once a week, for the past idk 6 months. i'll think about making a post where i (as a somewhat smug american) list some countries i think it makes sense to be smug about being from. this is a bad post idea but i just need to get it out of my system. maybe dont read this post.
countries it makes sense to be smug about being from (non-exhaustive):
america
china
france
greece
mexico
syria (i have to put this here or my syrian friend will kill me)
nigeria (this is a weird one but i think nigeria is ascendant)
russia
mongolia
countries it does NOT make sense to be smug about being from (non-exhaustive)
canada
germany
UK
if i list any majority non-white countries here this post will be unambiguously racist instead of ambiguously racist
japan is an edge case tho
oh man sorry koreans but korea. fail country
there are a LOT of edge cases. for example, spain.

Without hypnosis, how would you encourage someone to become a diaper-addicted bedwetter? What’s the best argument you could make to win them over?
i'd like to answer this in the form of a ramble. no hypnosis, no traps, no triggers. literally just a lesson from me to you. click below if you're curious.
some folks describe the world we're in as one that tries to fit you into a mold, to shape you a desired way.
but a mold is a very simple process, pour liquid substance into a vessel with the desired shape, let it solidify, and its done. taking an otherwise shapeless thing and giving it shape in a very easy way.
life is not a mold, but an extruder.
a length of meterial is sent down a tube, which itself gradually shifts from the original shape, to the desired one.
the process is gradual, the material shapes itself almost as if it were meant to, but it's being guided to that shape by the tunnel its in.
you werent given a role from the start and made to fit it, you were gradually acclimated to that role until it became normal.
its the small things. being corrected on how you sit, or how loud your voice is, or telling you to stop tapping your feet, or saying particular interests dont fit your role.
i used to naturally cross my legs, i had an interest in pink, i loved made for dvd cartoons like strawberry shortcake or tinker bell. turned out i was transgender, and the role of "boy" was one i was shaped to be through peer pressure.
now, what does this have to do with diapees?
put simply, you NEVER had a say in potty training.
kids often have no say in a lot of things, its taken for granted that a kid needs guidance if they're gonna be safe in this world. but potty training is a universal lesson.
how did YOU react at the time? to being told you have to "graduate" from diapers. were you agreeable? upset? did you try to rebel? it doesnt matter, all roads lead to you being potty trained.
its so deeply ingrained in our society its practically a core foundation. think about this for a moment, KINDNESS is not mandatory. sure, as a kid you're taught to share and care, but how many people do you know who carried that into adulthood? in fact, in a capitalist sense, kindness is a weakness to the goal of profit.
so, we live in a world where you CANNOT under ANY circumstance choose to be diapered, unless you "need" to, like, if there is no alternative. and yet you can live life as the biggest jerk in history and you're not even guaranteed a reprimand for it.
and yet... everyone ALSO agrees that being a kid is the best thing in the world, and you should enjoy it while you can because it wont last, you cant go back to that.
and that much IS true... but you CAN go back in some ways.
oh sure, you WILL grow up. lessons get learned, fears develop, motor function improves, your body gets taller and stronger, and your brain naturally develops as it goes, that much is ALL true...
but... you CAN still wear diapers... in fact, it almost seems like you're gently encouraged to? cuz like... every store with a pharmacy has a nearby section for adult diapers, they got ENTIRE ISLES of diapers. in every size you'd need.
because as much as society tries to tell us diapers are meant to be left behind, we cant deny that sometimes they are necessary, stores NEED these if they can have them.
and if thats the case... if systems are in place for people to wear diapers... what exactly is wrong with using them?
and furthermore, its probably the ONE holdover from childhood you can always go back to.
no matter how big you get, you cant change one universal fact. diapers exist, they have an intended function, and you CAN use them, if you are brave.
and if you do? you're being a TRUE rebel, moreso than most really. you're doing the ONE thing adults must NEVER do, the thing that potty training was MADE for.
if you wear and use diapees, you are choosing to reject an instinct of adulthood in favor of your own personal rebellious joy, and that is BADASS.
and why shouldnt you? if gender is a social construct, then so is growing up. you CAN redefine what it means to you. you can decide for yourself what it means.
and if you do... you ALSO have the option... to take it FURTHER.
because you know... training like that can be UNDONE too.
not fully, mind, your body now has the ability to know when it needs to go, that much stays.
buuuuut. your ability to hold it CAN be undone.
;3 and thats not even hypnosis, all you have to do is use your diapees! X3 im not joking, peeing yourself outside of a bathroom scenario gives your body and brain permission to do it elsewhere.
UwU and with time... it gets harder to hold it. ;3 how long does it take?
3 WEEKS
3 weeks of continued diaper use is all it takes to lose control.
but why? why lose control? what point is there is making you wet yourself? (or mess if thats your thing. X3 its certainly mine!)
because if using diapers is rebellion, then unpotty training is FREEDOM
its the ultimate middle finger to the training you were given, a sound rejection of the thing you were taught is most important.
and once you reject that... the skies the limit!
do you have any idea how much CONFIDENCE it takes to willingly make yourself a puddlepants?
if you're willing to do that, no force on this earth can stop you. gender? redefine it as you please. fashion? you wear diapers for underwear, wear whatever you want. hobbies? passions? do what you like! ;3 not like bathroom breaks can stop you anymore.
so go nuts! have fun! live life on YOUR terms.
diapers are fun, diapers are soothing, diapers are freeing, and diapers are YOURS to wear.
be free, be a mushtush!

I desire to see more of Hyun-ju in your style, please (and tell me more about your oc's as well, I like people's oc's)
hyun-ju the most beautiful girl ever (⸝⸝⸝• ω •⸝⸝⸝) ♡ i love her sm!!! thank u for giving me an excuse to draw her haha
as for my squid game ocs, i'll put my ramble under the cut as i have quite a bit to say lol
so! my ocs :3 as i previously mentioned before, they are a father and daughter pair! (i also finally came up with names for them, adhika is the daughter and dakila is the father)
much like geum-ja and yong-sik, i think that they both joined the games separately and only knew abt each other when they arrived. their family is def struggling, with adhika's father in debt and having a hard time finding work while her mother takes care of her younger siblings. adhika just turned 18 a few months ago, and has been working odd jobs here and there in attempts to support her family and pay off their debt, but the money is just a drop in the bucket.
adhika feels a very strong sense of responsibility towards her family, and wants to help out. she even refused to leave to go to university, despite being very smart and having a bright future in academics, to help out her family. but also sometimes, she also feels...burdened? it's a very conflicting feeling. she loves her family, but she'd be lying if she said didn't feel a twinge of resentment at this situation. i hope that makes sense lol
i haven't yet decided if my ocs are gonna just be fun little canon inserts or if im giving them their own story. both options seem rlly fun to me so kjssdkfjh im having a tough time deciding
some fun little tidbits about dakila and adhika's way of going about the games:
adhika is locked the fuck in. she's already at a disadvantage being a young, 5 foot tall, non-korean girl, so she's working twice or thrice as hard to get thru this shit
as i said before, adhika is very smart. she has good people-reading skills, and the ability to kinda morph into whatever people need her to be, or fit into whatever dynamic she believes people want her to fit (a skill that she picked up from just. life experience as the oldest sibling in a struggling family LMAO)
dakila is trying to look out for his daughter, but the games put a strain on their relationship
adhika has lowkey manipulative tendencies. they come out and worsen during the games. honestly, just think of her as a nasty mix of sang-woo and mi-nyeo. absolutely FOUL things coming from this girl i love her
this isnt really important at all nor does it really come up within her story but i still want to mention adhika is a lesbian. she joins the doomed squid game lesbian roster with sae-byeok ji-yeong and young-mi LMAO
akjfhdskjhf sorry this is so jumbled i just have a lot of thoughts. i'm still ironing out dakila and his personality so unfortunately i dont have as much on him as i do with adhika. but i hope that this information is interesting enough for now!! thank you SO much for giving me the chance to ramble abt my silly guys

hai bby! hru?
so idk if this is going to make sense but i've had this thought on my mind for a while and i wanted to request something if it's not too much to ask for.
so like, rich sunghoon who's very protective of y/n and is cold to everyone but y/n and their rich kid friend group. and rich y/n who even tho is rich, is still very kind and caring. they're both in school (college or high school) and they're like the "rich and popular" kids. so basically, y/n's super innocent and sweet and hoon is trynna figure out how to confess? can be angsty with fluff? and you can decide whether it's written or a smau.
i'm so sorry if this makes no sense 😓 and if you can't do it, that's totally fine too. hope you're well love!
-⭐
youre not for sale (request) ☘︎ park sunghoon
warnings: fluff, comfort, angst, mutual yearning, reader being a bit blind, i think thats all!! if there's anything else let me know!!

park sunghoon was in love with y/n l/n. that was a fact no one could deny. It was obvious to everyone. Well, everyone except one person. y/n. He was constantly buying them things, from flowers to expensive jewelry. but to y/n, he was just “being a really good friend”. to sunghoon, they were the kindest, sweetest, ad most attractive person he had ever met in his whole life. that brings us to now. sunghoon has been with jake all day, coming up with a speech to tell y/n he likes, scratch that, is in love with them. “what the actual fuck do i say to them man? ‘hey y/n i know were super close and all, oh by the way, i'm in love with you’? hell no. shes just- sweet, and, i dont wanna say fragile. but shes innocent. i dont wanna hurt her or confuse her.” so far, its going…not so great. “i really don't know what to tell you bro. you just need to grow a pair and tell her.” sunghoon gives him a glare, “easy for you to say, you got your girlfriend by just being pathetic and following her around like a puppy”. “OH FUCK YOU MAN” safe to say, jake didnt take too well to his jab. sunghoon felt like drowning in self-pity. his friends were no help, and with each passing day he fell for y/n more and more with no idea how he should confess to them. especially when everyone around them knew all of their business. y/n on the other hand, could not have been more oblivious. “i’m telling you noo, he does not like me like that”, they say. oh how wrong they were. sunoo looks at them as if they were insane, “are you serious right now y/n? that guy looks at you as if you created all things good in the world! i’m serious!”. in that moment, he thought they could never be more dense.

a week went by of sunghoon helplessly wondering, crying for help to his friends, and buying flowers for y/n that reminded him of them. he sees y/n walking to their class and runs up to them. “y/n! Hey! um- do you wanna hang out later? Maybe like grab some lunch or get boba or something” he asks, desperately hoping that they say yes. “oh my god yes! i’ve been craving boba like crazy!” for a moment, sunghoon truly believed there was something in the universe on his side. he spent the next 3 hours trying to think up someway to confess. flowers? the ring they've been talking about wanting? unlimited trips to their favorite restaurant? he needed to come up with something, and fast.
the pair somehow end up back at y/n’s dorm, playing video games. sunghoon had just beat y/n at mario kart *again*, and y/n decided they needed a break. “god, how do you win every time?’ they grumble while walking to the kitchen. sunghoon replied before even giving a second
thought, “i’m just that good baby”. y/n had never turned around so fast in their life, “what?”. He froze, nothing coming out of his mouth, eventually, it all just started coming out before he could save himself. “i love you. you’re so amazing, and kind, and pretty. i don't even think i deserve you but i really hope you’ll give me a chance! i’ve been trying to figure out how to confess to you for so long and this really isn’t how i planned it but this is how its happening. you just make me so nervous but in a really good way and i just really hope you feel the same or you hear me out and at least let me take you out on one date.” he stops speaking abruptly as it all just happened so fast. silence filled the once loud room that was overflowing with their laughter. “sunghoon…” they trail off, “you really feel that way?” he doesn't respond and simply stares down at his feet in embarrassment and defeat. “i’m gonna go, i'll see you around.” he abruptly stands up and leaves with y/n protesting behind him and telling him to stay. he beat himself up the whole night, this isn't how he wanted it to go, not at all. he couldn't believe he let himself word vomit like that! he just blew it with the person of his dreams, he could never tell his friends about this. they’d definitely use it against him for life, and he can’t bear the thought of reliving his worst heartbreak.
y/n wasn’t completely sure what to do, or how to handle this. sunghoon liked them? there's no way. he’s handsome and kind, he's perfect. and he seriously likes them? as she runs through every possible scenario of how this situation ends in her head, she impulsively decides to go to his dorm. she hesitated before knocking on his door. sunghoon opened the door, to see, to his shock, y/n. “i really really like you too and i’ve never known how to tell you and when you just said everything to me i froze because i didn't know what to say! you're the most amazing guy sunghoon and i want this to work out. so please just tell me if you want to make this work too.” he stood in the doorway, his mouth parted in shock. he spoke quietly after a moment, “you really mean it?” y/n looks at him incredulously “are you kidding? of course i mean it!” sunghoon swore he felt his heart stop for a solid 5 seconds. “i thought i lost you for good, oh my god!” he sighs in relief. “you could never lose me don't be stupid.” he gives them a glare before wrapping his arms around them, not caring who in the hall saw. “does this mean i can take you on a date now?” he asked softly. “i mean obviously”

Hi! I'm a big fan of your blog! I just this past week got into the gallaghers after stumbling across them on ao3. Every time I think i've found everything, a new surprising factoid comes out of the woodwork. They are so in love its inane and frankly quite worrying. I cannot believe more people dont see it with how obvious they're being.
That being said, I've noticed a thing about one of Liam's tweets and a song lyric he wrote. I cant find the tweet at the moment, but it's the one where someone asks if he loves Noel and Liam responds "yes I love him is that such a crime". I was listening to GGTIA and realized the lyrics "I'd get round to loving you, is that such a crime?" sounded awful familiar...He must have taken that response right from the song lol. Which makes me feel some sort of way. Especially with how awful (glorious) GGTIA is. The whole song is clearly a love song and yet Liam wrote it for Noel. And now Liam references his own song to say yes, he does love Noel.
God, I love them.
omg ahhhh congrats, welcome!! the first "wait.. hold on. wait wtf?? this can't be true.. oh jesus it's getting worse🤯" stage of getting into Them is a powerful powerful drug and tbh it never loses strength. we've been on this grind full-time for a year now (really no time at all in the grand scheme) and every day we're still going "holy shit WAIT WHAT??" about some new insane thing. (also how did you inadvertently stumble upon them on ao3?? what a trip.)
re liam's uhhh Everything. i regret(?) to inform you that ggtia is barely scratching the surface lol. the "crime" stuff in particular goes way deeper than that, ggtia is just one of many references back to a central core of sus shit. noel is a much worse offender in this arena actually. beyond his multiple ""jokes"" in the press about being attracted to/having sex with liam and the legality thereof, his most egregious act was writing this song, a demo nominally called "it's a crime" by fans bc he never actually released or named it, someone just leaked it in 2000. he later rewrote it and it became "let there be love," a trajectory we can all speculate on till the cows come home. he has since denied remembering this song even exists. (if you haven't clocked this yet, he's a pathological recreational liar and also has crazy bad memory issues, so even odds on whether this is true or not.)
also idk if you've dipped into any of liam's solo music or not, but ggtia was Baby's First Steps in terms of writing lovesick songs about one's brother. i can't necessarily recommend liam's music on any basis other than it being kinda catchy and p much all of it being incest anthems, so ymmv on enjoyment factor, but here's a brief playlist of SOME OF his more astonishing entries in the "im madly in love with my brother who hates me" oeuvre. (and then go watch the music video for "one of us," which might be the most excruciatingly raw thing anyone's ever done for an audience of millions, and is crammed beyond capacity with References.) there are a few of noel's songs on this playlist too, the ones i personally think are about liam, but diagnosing noel's music is a completely different exercise than diagnosing liam's. noel's very circumspect and art-first about his music, whereas it's pretty safe to assume most of liam's songs are explicitly about noel. the only one on this playlist with some potential wiggle room is "for what it's worth," which liam once claimed wasn't about noel, however his alternative very vague explanation was that it was possibly about his ex wife. which under the circumstances didn't really make sense. imo he just got a little embarrassed and backpedalled under scrutiny. here is noel acknowledging his awareness that all liam's songs are about him lol.
anyway! liam's a magical boy who believed in himself and never gave up and relentlessly wooed his big brother with mid music for years until that shit finally worked, so let this be a lesson to us all. NEVER have dignity, NEVER say die, ALWAYS kiss your brother on the mouth in public. the universe loves you 💖💖💖
#communiques#blogger two editing the tags to just add a disclaimer that she actually likes liam's music and that blogger one's opinions are her own lol

so, using my main acc for this because i want to show some photos (anon^4 btw, ill still be mainly using the anon feature because i like it more but ill post drawings with my hcs from time to time)
anyways, i like giving characters from things i like animals that i feel like would fit them. so, im gonna do that!
c00lkidd: Chimera, i dont really have a reasoning for this besides.... well i do what i want.
1x1x1x1: ALSO a chimera, this one i have an explanation for. I kinda just thought up, "well wouldnt it be cool if he was a chimera" and then boom, theyve been a chimers to me ever since. plus ive seen them symbolize chaos, which fits both 1x and c00lkidd so.
bluduud: Griffon, counter to c00lkidd, really only mythological creature i could think of that i guess could like be the opposite of a chimera i guess
shedlestky: ....Also a griffon. because. hes an admin. and i see people say that hes a chicken a lot so.... mythical animal thats bird related? Griffon.
twotime: I feel like this is obvious, a Phoenix, because of phoenixes represent rebirth and... twotime....... Plus their phoenix skin but thats based off of what they represent though so first point stands even harder.
mafioso: bunny.
eunoia: bunny.
nasatra: she reminds me of a cat.
elliot: dog, maybe a golden retriever mix? not any full breed though. or a cheeta because of his speed.
chance: hes a cat. no questions asked theyre just a cat. tuxedo cat. or a bunny because he has one.
jason: i... actually dont know...... erm. i want to say a wolf for a, shits and giggles plus b, forest.
john doe: dog. i mean i described him as a dog in one of my earlier asks so. makes sense.
azure: oouuhh i dont know..m. i wanna say cat again but hough.... i want to say maybe like a serpent for it also representing rebirth..... yknowwhat no yeah, go my snake.
dusekkar: deer. thats it.
noob: to be honest i want to say a cat again but also...... no fuck it kitty. this is based off of the fact they have a cat in canon.
007n7: some corvid because of their smarts.
guest 1337: dog, specifically a german shepherd or any common military-used dog breeds.
builderman: i dont know i feel like i want to give him some mythological critter because of being the creator of roblox and stuff but also i think he would just be a raccoon. if he was a mythical creature he wpuld be a dragon though. dunno why just seems right.
noli: parrot
guest 666: goat because they look very... demon-esq and demons are [from what i know] usually represented by goats.
itrapped: fox, because hes a scammer and... you kinda have to be sly for that and foxes are commonly said to be very sly so.
anyways on with those pictures i was gonna send, go my art





specifically stuff relating to this so, go my c00lkidd because hes one of the only ones who i have pictures of my design of </3 i have 1x all done too but i dont feel like getting out the photos of it... so.... ermmmmm....
Best regards, "anon"^4
I really love your art, 'anon'^4. And I also really love your animal headcanons. Fox ITrapped is real in my heart now.
#forsaken headcanons#forsaken#forsaken roblox#roblox forsaken#anon^4#c00lkidd forsaken#1x1x1x1 forsaken#bluudud forsaken#shedletsky forsaken#two time forsaken#mafioso dream game#mafioso forsaken#eunoia forsaken#eunoia dream game#nashatra forsaken#nashatra dream game#elliot forsaken#chance forsaken#jason forsaken#john doe forsaken#azure forsaken#dusekkar forsaken#noob forsaken#007n7 forsaken#guest 1337 forsaken#builderman forsaken#noli forsaken#guest 666 forsaken#itrapped forsaken

absolutely adore how each of the characters is flawed in a way that makes sense for their personality and how theyre generally coping. like idk if i have it in me to make an entire post talking about each character in this context but like. its smth i think abt a lot and i think its a testament to the shows great writing
(long post that turned into rambling abt pomni for a little over 1000 words under the cut)
like take pomni for example. she is incredibly cowardly. while she CAN actually get through a lot of horrifying things which, in turn, is why she IS brave- a contradictory trait that i deeply enjoy bc having characters w seemingly contradictory traits makes them feel all the more human since people are hardly ever just one way or another- she will panic her way through a bad situation
she very obviously cares about people. that isnt something thats new, she didnt learn compassion in eps 2 or 3 or 4. not that shes the most comforting presence a person can have, but the way she talks to people is indicative of her having already been a person who cared about others- bad situations can often just bring out the worst in people
in the pilot, she doesnt trust literally anyone. she starts to be more compassionate towards the others eps 2 onward, but its very obvious in the pilot that shes scared as hell and that makes her not trust any of the people around her. i dont think she thinks theyre dangerous, its not that kinda distrust, but she doesnt know any of these people, and bc her priority of 'panic your way out of bad situations' means that shes not really gonna stop for people she doesnt trust at all. its cruel in a way. but it does make sense for her
and like the thing is im not really... one for trying to decide whether or not a character is 'good' or not. its kinda subjective and a pointless question to answer, and runs the risk of overly simplifying a them and their writing. add to that that i dont really like the idea that a character must experience Consequences for Every mistake in order to be a 'good' person. it feels weird. like ofc if a character whos a dick (ie jax) experiences consequences im not really all that concerned but deciding a character must be yelled at or something in order to be better just feels strange. i think its much more powerful that a character gradually grows out of WANTING to
which is why i think pomni feels so great- she is certainly flawed but atm im glad the show doesnt keep trying to emphasize that oh wow isnt it bad that she did that? instead, shes growing BC of more positive things. like finding solace in those around her. when characters are in a horrific situation thats going to make them act out, it makes more sense that personal growth doesnt come from punishing a character for responding poorly to the situation. from a writing perspective, this show instead rewards characters for choosing to be better
because narratively punishing pomni for acting selfishly when scared wouldnt make her trust those around her any more. it wouldnt fix the issue here
anyway thats its own spiel. but pomni is also, imo, more socially confident than i think people would assume. not that shes GOOD at socializing, thats a different topic. but with her general nervous demeanor i think its easy to assume that shes socially anxious, but she actually comes across like she doesnt really give a shit about social things. shes deeply blunt and tends to do what she wants in conversations. she doesnt try to be mean and doesnt WANT people to be upset, but shes very candid about her thoughts. its a very fun trait for a character to have, bc i dont think shed assume herself to be super incredible at socializing, but it doesnt seem to be smth she gets worried abt
i think socially most of her stress comes from trusting those around her. and she will make it very clear if she doesnt trust someone. because shes nervous and blunt and if she doesnt like you, you will know. either way, shes not shy. remember, this is a woman who crawled on the floor of a public setting knowing full well that gummigoo is a complex and lifelike ai, and when she got caught she was awkward for sure, but she didnt seem worried
and on another note? i think smth thats prob gonna come up more in the show, since it already has w gangle, is that the characters in the show already had personal problems. the shows official site synopsis implies this too. and while i could go all day about the implications of this for each of the characters im gonna keep it to pomni
imo, pomni absolutely already had something going on before the show. i mean, not that anyone upon being kidnapped and losing their body and general autonomy is going to respond well, but the way that pomnis stress presents honestly gives me the feeling that she is someone who already had some sort of anxiety disorder (or smth similar- im not an expert and theres frankly a lot of things her stress can look like). people react in different ways in a crisis, especially if theyve experienced similar emotions before. and with how quickly she defaults to dissociating before shes even been in the circus for an hour really makes it come across like she genuinely had some problems with stress before even coming here
and also the fact that shes not as anxious by day two. she seems majorly out of it, of course, and having experienced what is implied to have been an abnormally bad day even by circus standards on her very first day itd make sense to be exhausted, but she moves from 'so scared she cant think right' to 'dejected and exhausted' extremely quickly. being thrown off the truck seems to kick the panic back in but thats beside the point. she got past the initial fear in a relatively short amount of time for someone that seems SO easily panicked that it does make me feel like shes someone who is more 'used' to the feeling. it can make you adapt to bad situations faster. in a worse way (not that she HAS completely adapted i think thatd be incorrect but. you get the idea)
all that to say that it then makes even more sense for her to react kinda badly. i dont think anyone (no matter what they think- its easy to assume youd react well in a bad situation but when something actually happens, its very, very different) would handle the situation, but her tendency to be kinda selfish and rude to ppl she doesnt trust makes sense. it doesnt make her bad or smth it just... makes her feel more real
anyway this post is way longer than i intended. this is exactly why i wouldnt be able to do this with all the main characters rn HAHA cus if i tried to do this w the entire cast i think this would constitute an academic essay
#tadc#the amazing digital circus#tadc pomni#putting this in tags bc i like discussing characters and pomni is an INCREDIBLE character imo#idt i actually even covered every aspect of why i like her but like#i think i touched on a lot of aspects of her that i deeply enjoy#maybe ill do this w the others sometimes#idk if this post is coherent but . have it anyway#long post#jic#also leaving this in the tags but like...#pomni is so bad socially shes very blunt and she is touch averse etc etc#points at pomni. i know what you are#(IN A POSITIVE WAY.)#(it makes me happy to see a character w those traits presented positively)

hrmmm idk.. this all makes sense but like, i dont think zombie drones have any memories from before being deactivated. they certainly dont seem to. the solver was not an outside force either, it mutated within cyn and brought her to life, she does not know anything outside of it, there is no "her" without it. i am honestly a firm believer that cyn was mostly herself the whole time, just pushed towards evil by the influence of the solver and the abuse she faced at the hands of the elliots, and even tessa and j. i mean, the solver certainly isnt a character when uzi overheats and starts killing people. thats all her, solver mode almost a failsafe to keep her alive. when her solver turns yellow, its because cyn is controlling her through it. cyn is driven to planet-destroying evil by the same blinding, all consuming hunger that leads uzi to murder - i think thats an important part of this interpretation. more than anything the solver is a gnawing pit of hunger, it seeks consuming everything within itself and becomes more powerful through it
this interpretation makes the story feel more whole in a way to me. cyn kills her abusers and reclaims her life and god she kills so many people, causes unimaginable harm, but its beautiful to me in a way. shes corrupted and evil, shes starving and shes finally free. maybe she reaches a point of no return and gets so lost in the incessant gnawing hunger that she starts hurting the people she actually cares about. maybe she cant find the sweet girl who used to exist anymore, swept away in a tide of blood and oil, and she desperately wants and needs someone to stop her because shes too far gone
idk. i do love many aus built on the assumption that the solver is its own person who possesses cyn but. murder drones being a story about a bunch of kids with terrible coping mechanisms and so much trauma, a story about agency and freedom, i see this interpretation as the one that fits the themes of the story the most and provides cyn the most complete character arc
cyn hc of mine : in episode 5 minus all the stuff in the bunker the cyn we see is the real cyn up until the “don’t go to the gala” sence
Tbh I can see where you're coming from, the switch-up in behavior from Cyn in the first half of the episode up until the Gala (the climax & second half) is pretty noticeable. With how nonchalant she acts with N vs. how dismissive she acts with Tessa/J before revealing the Solver form is a pretty good 180 turn.
Personally, to me it'd always been the Solver from the moment Cyn allowed it access in the beginning of the episode (the Drone waking up underneath the pile of bodies in the junkyard, which is asked by the Solver to give it admin access).
Her switch up in the episode to me personally shows the Solver's ability to adapt & improvise with certain people through it's host and the abilities at hand, using it cleverly to get certain events rolling. e.g knowing that N would most likely defend her against Louisa's outburst or being dismissive of N's survival because she already has clones/copies of the main 3 who'll become Disassembly Drones later on.
Though it's also very "human" in a sense to show this range of emotions with different people depending on the situational awareness, and I can see why folks wouldn't think an AI could create this range of behavior this easily, and it instead truly comes from Drone Cyn instead of the AS.
Though I guess with how sparse information is about Cyn as the Solver's host it's all up to personal interpretation- actually a fact I enjoy about the show, rather than being upset that some characters don't have a canon answer to open/ambigious information.
Makes making up headcanons & drawing your own conclusions much more fun and allows for more room to discuss potential answers without having to debate against "acktually, the show said-" arguments, pff.
